Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 80 Delicious BBQ
"He said it's a habit." I said something, and then realized: "Does he have a problem with his eyes?"

Lao Yan let out a long sigh: "Alas... eyesight is fine, even better than ordinary people, but it's a pity that he looks like a blind man. When Professor Xu picked him up, he even called out to himself. I don’t know anything, I just say that others call him blind.”

I looked back and saw that Yazai was huddled in the sleeping bag, motionless, and seemed to have fallen asleep, but seeing his tense appearance, it was obvious that he was just pretending to be asleep.

During the period of acquaintance, I always felt that Yazai was a person who escaped, and such a person must have no worries.But now it seems that everyone is good at disguising themselves with masks, whether the face under the mask is happy or sad is easy to refuse to show others.

Thinking of how many times I asked him about the sunglasses before, I really felt that I was a bit of a loser, and it was a good thing that he could hold back and not get mad on the spot!

Lao Yan patted me on the shoulder: "Okay, he will be fine when the rain stops, you don't have to worry."

"I don't have the right to worry about others." I smiled wryly, now that I haven't even adjusted myself, it's just a moment of embarrassment about the boy.

When we got back to the cave, we didn’t continue chatting. We curled up in our sleeping bag to rest when we were sleepy. I hugged the sleeping bag and stared at the fire in a daze. I seemed to be thinking about everything and nothing at all.

The rain gradually stopped at night, but the mountain wind was cooler. I wrapped my sleeping bag tightly and carefully protected the fire to prevent it from being blown out by the sudden cold wind.

"Go to sleep." Lao Yan woke up for some reason, patted my shoulder sleepily, and then took over my job.

I thanked me, I thought I would not be able to fall asleep, but who knew that after lying down, I fell asleep within a short while.When they woke up again, everyone was already packing their luggage. It turned out that the sky outside had cleared up, and even in the morning, they could still feel the scorching heat of the sun.

I subconsciously took a look at Yazai, and found that he had recovered, laughing and joking with Laoyan and the others.Noticing that I woke up, he ran over and kicked me: "You are awake, if you don't wake up again, I thought you left with the beauty in the dream."

"Did you dream of a beautiful woman yourself?" I breathed a sigh of relief, and joked with him calmly, as if I didn't know anything about him.

We didn't have any luggage at first, so we packed it up quickly. Lao Yan stomped out the sporadic fire in the fire, and then called us to set off.

The mountain road that has just rained is particularly difficult to walk. Every step can make mud puddles, but the air is very fresh, and it is refreshing to take a breath.

"Damn the weather, I have to take another detour." Miss Qiu cursed in a low voice, and impatiently tapped the grass in front with a stick, looking like she wished a snake could emerge from it to vent her anger.

But we can't blame her. Because of the rain yesterday, we ran around in the woods in a panic. We originally went west, but we just went southwest. It would take several hours to go back.

Lao Yan laughed: "Okay, there's no need to rush."

It took us all morning to get back on the correct route. This time, no one called to stop, and we all wanted to drive as much as we could.

However, the sun after the rain was extremely strong. We walked under the sun for more than an hour at noon, and the boy paralyzed first: "I'm almost an adult, Lao Yan, take a break."

"Tell me about you, master and apprentice, why are you so delicate? Miss Xiaoqiu didn't cry tired. Get up quickly, hold on for a while, and rest after a while." Lao Yan kicked Yazai, the latter screamed and grabbed my arm and got up, muttered something about old smoke exploiting labor, and reluctantly continued to move forward.

At about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, we went around the mountainside. From here, we walked for more than ten miles to the foothills of Taibai Mountain.

Lao Yan found a flat road and said: "Okay, take a rest, and set foot on Taibai Mountain tomorrow."

"Yo, you just urged me to go, and now Taibai Mountain is right in front of you, why, keep going." Yazai resented Lao Yan for forcing him to walk for a few hours longer, seeing Lao Yan stop , pouted.

Lao Yan snorted and said that according to the records, Taibai Mountain is much more dangerous than the mountain we are on now.It's night now, and if you spend the night on the mountain in Taibai with your eyes smeared, you will die if you don't die.

Yazai groaned a few words, but after all he couldn't find a way to refute Lao Yan, and lay down on the side in a big font angrily, not speaking.

Lao Yan looked in the direction of Taibai Mountain with the binoculars, then shook his head: "Maybe it's just rained, it's foggy, and I can't see anything clearly."

I took his binoculars and looked at it, feeling a little strange: "Then why is the fog so thick?"

Although it rained last night, it has already been a day. After being exposed to the sun, the fog should dissipate. Even if it does not dissipate, it shouldn't be so thick, right?
"It should be due to the terrain, and we will be able to see it when we get closer tomorrow." Old Yan said.

I put away the binoculars and temporarily put this idea behind me, and imitated the boy and slumped to the side.

Ms. Qiu stood up after resting for a while, took out a small sharp knife from her big bag, and said that she wanted to add something to our meal.I was not at ease and wanted to go with her, but she looked back at me with a charming smile: "OK, then come with my sister."

Afterwards, Lao Yan and others looked at me jokingly, I shrugged helplessly, and followed up anyway, even if it was in the woods, one more person would take care of each other.

Miss Qiu didn't go far, but squatted behind a relatively dense bush, and asked in my ear, "Do you know how to hunt?"

I shook my head, she smiled, but it made my heart tremble, and I saw excitement flashed in her eyes: "Learn a little bit later."

I thanked her, squatted next to her and stared at her intently.

Not long after, there was movement from the bushes not far away, and a fat gray-white rabbit got out of it, sniffing on the ground with its nose, and vigilant about its surroundings with its ears moving.

I glanced at Miss Qiu, but she didn't move, but those eyes seemed to be fixed on the rabbit.

Just when I thought she couldn't move, she swung her hand suddenly, and the knife flew out at a speed invisible to the naked eye, hitting the rabbit's forehead, and I was dumbfounded.

"What are you doing in a daze, go pick it up." Miss Qiu clapped her hands and stood up, and I picked up the rabbit with a groan.

Such a fat rabbit is enough for the five of us to eat, but Miss Qiu did not return, but changed to another place and repeated the action just now. This time she hunted a wild pheasant.

She clapped her hands: "Tsk tsk, if it weren't for the bad weather, the meat is easy to spoil, I would kill a few more."

Carrying a rabbit in one hand and a pheasant in the other, I followed Miss Qiu, and asked her if she could teach this skill to others?
I stayed in the army for three years, and I only learned some fighting skills and shooting skills. The former is useless when encountering masters, and the latter is too noisy, which is not suitable for many times.

"You want to learn?" She glanced back at me, and I nodded hurriedly.

She took a deep look at me, and then smiled strangely: "You can learn if you want to. I happen to be in the mountains these few days. My sister will teach you well."

Originally, she promised me that I should be happy, but I don't know why she smiled like that, and I was completely at a loss...

And when we went back, after Miss Qiu notified the news, both Lao Yan and Yazai looked at me with sympathy and sighed.Even Kumbu's expressionless face showed emotions similar to you, which made me feel even more uncertain.

When Yazai and I went to find the water source to clean up the rabbits and pheasants, he asked me why I went to learn throwing knives with Miss Qiu when I got hot-headed?

"Why else, I think it's useful." I replied while plucking the feathers off the pheasant.

Yazi shook his head helplessly: "Who doesn't know that Sister Qiu is known as a weapon master, proficient in all weapons in the world, and a hundred people can't get close.

But these years, no one is willing to learn from her. Do you know why? "
